TLDR : Answer Summary
A user expressed nervousness about applying for a Thai visa in Hanoi and asked for advice. Other users offered encouragement and shared their experiences. Key considerations mentioned include having all necessary documents, such as proof of finances and course details for Muay Thai lessons, and being aware that visa processing might take 3-7 days. One user also noted a mistake made in their application form regarding previous visits to Thailand, seeking advice on how to correct it.

thanks . Will they open at 11 August ? Which day should I submit my application form is Good ?

Kiii345 according to their website they are only closed on the 12th but inside Thailand both 11th and 12th are holidays. At worst it just means an extra couple of days processing time

It's very sad...the waiting days

Kiii345 Just submit straight away anyway. I have seen people here receive approvals out of office hours, including weekends so I think some level of processing might be ongoing, even out of office hours. I got mine in Hanoi in 10 days but that included one request for further documents and a weekend. Enjoy a beer by a lake at sunset. Good luck!

The embassy and all Thai government offices are closed; no embassy officers will review any applications.

I have already provided one page of personal information when applying. Do I need to provide all pages?

I've looked it up. I've prepared all the documents. I've also prepared a letter explaining my finances, including six months of monthly statements. Six months is enough money. Applying for Muay Thai classes should be enough.

I think there is no problem, but the result is hard to estimate
